The big 25 is coming up for me in just a matter of days. I'm talking quarter century here people. I'm not super freaked out about it, I've already had my mid-life crisis about 4 times over…so I have learned some things…
1. You do you, booboo.
2. If no one likes you, who the hell cares?
3. Eat the damn cake….
4. In moderation.
5. Work out, even if you don't want to.
6. Your future self will thank you when you can climb stairs without huffing and puffing.
7. Bad boys really aren't that great.
8. Don't ever, ever, ever take your parents for granted….
9. No matter how bad your relationship is.
10. You will need your mommy/daddy at some point,
11. Even if you don't want to admit it.
12. Not everyone that comes into your life is meant to stay forever.
13. Tattoos/piercings are addictive.
14. Matching tattoos are never a good idea.
15. Neither is that name you're about to put on your body. Forever.
16. Under no circumstances does having a credit card ever work how you plan.
17. You think you will make the payments and stay caught up, but then life happens.
18. And credit card debt will ruin you.
19. Always have a mechanic check out any car you plan to buy.
20. Whether you are getting it from Joe Blow down the road or a dealership.
21. Know how to put oil, transmission fluid, coolant, and windshield wiper fluid in your car.
22. Blinker fluid is NOT real.
23. Trust me, things will change in a year.
24. It always gets worse before it gets better.
25. Ladies, have at least one eye shadow palette and a good set of make up brushes.
26. YouTube is your friend…
27. Who will teach you how to use said eye shadow palette, change your oil, or make a fancy dinner.
28. You're never too old for a Disney movie night.
29. Sometimes things just don't work out…
30. …And that's totally ok.
31. Either learn how to function with a hang over,
32. Or learn your alcohol limit.
33. Don't be too prideful to ask for help if you really need it.
34. You're family really does love you,
35. Even if they don't show it all the time.
36. Find a hobby….
37. It will keep you sane.
38. You are never too old to learn something new.
39. Moms— there's no such thing as the perfect mother.
40. Everyone yells at their kids, trust me.
41. As long as you are trying to be a good mom, you are doing a great job!
42. Enjoy the little things.
43. You need to try yoga at least once in your life. Not just yoga…
44. Try new things, no matter how much they may scare you.
45. 8 times out of 10, having roommates doesn't always go as planned.
46. Even if its with your best friend from middle school.
47. Go to a live concert at least once in your lifetime.
48. Everyone has fat rolls when they bend over.
